WWF Royal Rumble (2002) Watch Along Discussion

[Ricky Smarks]

"The awesome Chris Benoit" -they must have forgotten to edit that one out

They don’t edit much with Benoit anymore. Just the chapter names.

 

[Chris]

Yeah most of the commentary is unedited I doubt they give many fucks tbh

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

So I'm guessing this was there fallback if nWo didn't sign yet, having Austin vs. Angle at Mania

 

[OsBlaze]

I guess people from Texas are just sore losers.

 

[Chris]

It is true

 

[Chris]

And instead we got Angle/Kane

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Angle eliminating Austin here could have setup a fire Mania program.

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

I mean honestly I would've been annoyed, only because we saw them feuding so much in 2001 I would've wanted to see something different

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Shit, I was just typing about Austin and Angle at Mania without even seeing your guy’s comments saying it.

Great minds.

 

[Chris]

PERFECT PLEX

 

[OsBlaze]

Alright, time for Kurt to win this bad boy!

 

[Chris]

Oh now he's out

 

[Ricky Smarks]

I’d take it over Kane and honestly a mania match could have been their best match yet. And might have motivated Austin if they refused to do Hogan.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Ending this with Triple H and Angle was the right call.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

That spear and punch tackle is such good shit.
